| | Boudicca: Celtic warrior queen |
 | | Boudicca, warrior queen of the Celtic Iceni tribe, left her mark in British history and is regarded by many as patriotic heroine. | | | Boudicca and her forces spared no one and she ordered the city and its temples put to the torch. | | | Today Boudicca, warrior Queen of the Iceni tribe, is regarded as a patriotic Briton and heroine, a woman and a leader who stood her ground against foreign invasion. |

| | Boudicca |
| | Boudicca, it is claimed, escaped from the battlefield, and, according to Tacitus took poison, or, according to Dio, died of a sickness. | | | The widely held theory is that Boudicca’s control was slipping. | | | Whatever the cause, the consequences exceeded anything that could have been expected; the vast following that sprang up to support Boudicca quite obviously took the Romans by surprise and was very nearly the end of their occupation of Britain. |

| | But it would seem that Boudicca's actions had shocked the Roman world into adopting policies that were a little kinder. | | | Some historians believe that the relative lack of Romano-British remains in Norfolk is testimony to the severity with which the Roman Empire crushed Boudicca and the Iceni peoples. | | | They virtually routed the Ninth Legion that had been marching from Lincoln to help Paulinus, and without additional support from Rome there was little he could do against the determination of these people. |

| | As the final infantries closed against Boudicca's forces, they pinned them against their own families and completed the slaughter. | | | Poenius Postumus, the commander of the legion that failed to meet Suetonius in the Midlands, customarily fell on his own sword for denying his troops the glory of battle. | | | His choice was obvious since his troops are believed to have numbered only about 10,000, if that many. |

| | The question remains as to whether Boudicca herself committed such atrocities: no evidence suggests she didn't. | | | Under Boudicca, the Iceni rose against the Romans. | | | The historian Antonia Fraser, who wrote a book about female national heroines originally called Boadicea's Children and renamed The Warrior Queens, went so far as to suggest that there are two Iceni queens, the Boadicea of legend and the Boudicca of historical fact. |

| | Even before her untimely coronation (Prasutagus's death), she would have been heavily involved in the day to day ruling of the tribe, socially, physically and politically. | | | It was this event that fired Queen Boudicca’s anger and which gave her the strength to rally her troops and begin a war that would ultimately mean the demise of the Iceni. | | | She had at least two daughters by her husband Prasutagus, though it is unlikely that she had grown up sons, as it would have been the eldest son who would have taken control of the tribe after Prasutagus's death, rather than Boudicca. |

| | Queen Boudicca (or Bodicea), waged a rebellion against the Romans in Britain in 61 A.D, and is something of a legend, but what do we know about her? | | | Boudicca amassed a vast army of supporters, Britons who still did not want to be a subject population under the Romans. | | | Many thousands of Britons were put to the sword, including the elderly and children, who were at the scene of battle because their leaders were so confident of victory that they took their families along to witness the Romans defeat. |
